Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

  2. 2

    Roll Out the Dough

    On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a pizza peel or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Add Sauce

    Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Pepperoni

    Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Arrange the pepperoni slices evenly on top of the cheese.

  5. 5

    Season and Oil

    Drizzle the olive oil over the pizza and sprinkle with dried oregano and salt to taste.

  6. 6

    Bake the Pizza

    Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the pizza stone) and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  7. 7

    Cool and Slice

    Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve.
